Cables, or white hay or even spicy hay, can have many names, but in the end  rabbits like to put their teeth in !

Having a house ready to receive a bunny or as many say "a bunny- proof house " is to have a house with no wires in sight, or that we can get our teeth in.

The first step is to hide the wires, instead of having them on the floor try to put them in a high place, where we cannot reach, when that is not possible it is important to be creative and try to find solutions , do not forget that what works with bunnies , it may not work with others.

There are specific gutters to put wires in, they are one that stick to the wall or to the floor, put the wires inside and then cover it up like a thin box along the wall , it is a solution, to hide the wires, especially if the bunny is tiny or not very destructive , I know of bigger bunnies, who only managed to break the gutter with two bites .

Another option is to wrap the wires inside a kind of hose that is usually sold at computer or home appliance stores , they are tubes or hoses that put the wires inside, they can be similar to the vacuum tubes , or for who is older and remember, like the cord of old phones, spiraling. There are more thick and others thinner, have to see through your bunny that is most suitable and get all the wires inside.

If the wires are those that are glued to the feet of your hole then we have to start with more ingenious or creative ideas, you can take advantage and put a new foot wheel higher than what already exists, thus protecting the foot wheel and the wires and the rabbit address nibble will not spoil anything, can cause wooden boards without being treated and only a little higher than the wheel foot and can stick to tape double-sided glue, if you will beautify instead of a board liza they can put a small and small fence , as it is for sale in DIY stores and garden for the flowerbeds, it is original .

If the cables are all concentrated in one place, they can create a barrier for the bunny not to go there, they can do it with a grid or even a piece of cardboard , but in this case you have to be careful to see if the bunny doesn't gnaw it card and gets to the wires, is that sometimes if we don’t see the wires we don’t want to gnaw them so if they’re hidden and we don’t see them we won’t want to gnaw there .

Whenever your bunnies gnaw on a cable it is a pain in the neck for you who are left without a cable that certainly must be very important , it can cause an underload in the electrical panel and it comes down or even burns a circuit breaker and for the bunnies, because if the cable is connected to electricity it can electrocute the bunny and thus he can have serious internal and external injuries and even die.

If you see that your bunny is very quiet, with singed mustache, possibly with burning mouth, call your veterinarian and to go to the emergency bunnies for your clinic.

When the shocks are small, we usually have a slightly scorched or curled hair on the mustache , but we still find the cables so delicious .
